The real problem is supporting kernels for security updates. Just recently the maintainers released a matrix of what needed updates for kernels. It was mind boggling how complex things were. For sarge and beyond one of the challenges will be how to manage the kernel problem. You want to provide a lot of choice. But you don't have the resources to do all of the combinations. It's a problem. They *need* to simplify the list. Bob
